FWIW, I've seen this message from FreeBSD 5.x restore before. It had something to do with wildcard/glob matches while in interactive mode (-i). For the life of me, I can't remember how to trigger it, and I can't seem to trigger it on my 6.x boxes (which used to be 5.x). I'll add that "out of memory" was quite an amusing message for restore to print -- and the issue had nothing to do with memory not being available, it was just something that would get printed before erroring out on an operation that involved globbing or wildcards. I don't think your dump is useless. I'd be curious to see how you're doing the dumps, and how you're doing the restore session, though. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
